Is syntax correct on shortcode to show_columns and show_rows?

    I have a table with 10 columns and about 120 rows. I want to display only 3 of the columns and 10 of the rows on a page so I use this shortcode:

    [table id=10 show_columns="A,B,C" show_rows="1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10" /]

    Also, the support documentation says the show_columns are numbered like 1,2,3,4 but on my tablepress I see letters A,B,C,etc. Is this a problem?

    However, the entire table (all 10 columns and 120 rows) are displaying. Is my syntax incorrect? it seems fine to me.

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    First, using letters instead of number is no problem here, they get converted automatically.

    Now, about the functionality: These parameters work on top of the visibility settings on the “Edit” screen. So, if all rows/columns are marked as visible there, nothing will change. You will first have to hide everything, and then re-show the desired cells. Please try this Shortcode:

    [table id=10 hide_columns=all show_columns="A,B,C" hide_rows=all show_rows="1-10" /]

    Also note how I use an abbreviated syntax to make the Shortcode shorter.

    Regards,
    Tobias
